Younger Americans’ reading and library habits<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3380392&l=283661&ctl=44AE471:C073EF2ACA43AF345F5EF7F2FEBE12EBBBBE1ADFE3D02CC7&>

More than eight in ten Americans ages 16-29 read a book in the past year, and six in ten used their local public library. Many say they are reading more in the era of digital content, especially on their mobile phones and on computers.
At the younger end of the spectrum, high schoolers in their late teens (ages 16-17) and college-aged young adults (ages 18-24) are especially likely to have read a book or used the library in the past 12 months.
And although their library usage patterns may often be influenced by the requirements of school assignments, their interest in the possibilities of mobile technology may also point the way toward opportunities of further engagement with libraries later in life.

National Library of Poland to add 1.3 million records to WorldCat<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3380392&l=283661&ctl=44AE472:C073EF2ACA43AF345F5EF7F2FEBE12EBBBBE1ADFE3D02CC7&>
The National Library of Poland<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3380392&l=283661&ctl=44AE48B:C073EF2ACA43AF345F5EF7F2FEBE12EBBBBE1ADFE3D02CC7&> (Biblioteka Narodowa) and OCLC have signed an agreement to add 1.3 million Polish library records to WorldCat, which will nearly double the number of Polish records in the database. “Biblioteka Narodowa is looking forward to the great worldwide visibility that WorldCat can offer, and of course we’re very happy with the efficiencies we can achieve by using WorldCat for copy cataloguing,” said Dr. Tomasz Makowski, Director General of the National Library of Poland.

ArchiveGrid transitioning to free service<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3380392&l=283661&ctl=44AE473:C073EF2ACA43AF345F5EF7F2FEBE12EBBBBE1ADFE3D02CC7&>
Work is currently underway to transition the ArchiveGrid database of archival collection descriptions from a subscription service to a free service in January 2013 on a new interface developed and managed by OCLC Research.
A beta version of the new interface<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=3380392&l=283661&ctl=44AE48C:C073EF2ACA43AF345F5EF7F2FEBE12EBBBBE1ADFE3D02CC7&> developed is available at no charge and has been designed to support OCLC’s efforts to expand support for this type of data, engaging with the library/archive community as we work together to create more sustainable ways to grow the collection of data and represent it appropriately in WorldCat.
